Melissa Molinaro: Kim Kardashian Look Alike?

An imposter hacked into Kim Kardashian’s Twitter account today, temporarily preventing the reality star from connecting with her fans. To this we say: What is a Kardashian if she cannot tweet?! Cut off from her digital oxygen supply, Kimmy K issued an urgent S.O.S. from her phone: “Twitter please help me get my password back! How is it that I can tweet from my cell but my home computer says wrong password!”

Everyone can breathe a collective sigh of relief because the issue has been resolved, and Kardashian is back to micro-blogging every second of her existence. But this would-be case of illegal celebrity impersonation is far less nefarious than Old Navy’s Kim Kardashian lookalike.

Melissa Molinaro is the latest ‘face’ of Old Navy starring in its newest commercial. In the ads she bears a striking resemblence to Kim Kardashian which has gotten tongues wagging.   Melissa Smith (aka Melissa Molinaro) was born in Canada and mooved to the United States at the age of 3.  The Old Navy ads are her third go-around at fame, she previously appeared in Making the Band 3 on MTV and The Pussycat Dolls Present: Search for the Next Doll.   Outside of reality tv, she has appeared in the film Honey 2 and made a guest appearance on CBS’ How I Met Your Mother.

If the whole acting and music career doesn’t work out, she certainly could get work as a Kim Kardashian look-a-like.
